New shop cart

Items that have a shopping cart icon on the picture are in present time, available and for sale. Just click to buy. Other items are to show the kinds of things I have and I might have that item, or might not, probably not. But I can show you something similar, perhaps as a special order. I'm just now getting the cart worked on and will keep adding. I have inventory it is just a matter of doing the bookwork and entering (the part I hate, making it is easy, or acquiring the cool raw material keeping track of it is another matter). Hey! I can't be good at everything! Geez! Gimme a break! (smile) I already do all the art work, the book , made the tape. I carve, I cast I paint, I take pictures, I made the web site and run it, I do the taxes I answer the emails I find many of the fossils myself. I hate keeping track of stuff. So, Oh well!

Pendant Lynx claw   $45
This is a very large lynx claw the size of small lion or cougar. Cap is white bronze with a  purple zircon in the flower center (can not tell in the picture  due to reflection) chain loop is behind flower Cap cast just for this claw so it fits perfect.
Below are some choices I have made in the past,  sort of like the one in the cart to the right, but all one of a kind. Any of these are special orders because  who  knows  if I have one or can find it! But- if ya gotta have one of these others and do not want  the one in the cart! Contact me
PS I have this as of Dec 07 but want to take it to shows with me to sell and do not want to set it aside and wait for an Internet customer to discover it. So contact me I might have it and even know where it is! The price might depend on how long it takes me to find it! In the $200 ballpark plus or minus $50.
Pendant Lynx claw  my pick $30

This will be a medium size lynx claw with a flower and an opal in the center. For those who are not fussy and just want a claw with a flower  and an opal . Claw might be dark or light flower might be silver copper or brass and opal might be red green or blue. I have an exact claw listed above (If it's still there) for $45. Point and ask for 'that one' and it's $55. I might not be able to find it I might have to make it. I do not want  to say 'yes' then not find it and loose an hour time looking. So! (smile ) That's  why it's $30 for those  with a beer budget who cant afford wine or are just easy to please.

Left Pendant Fossil Walrus ivory  flower caped $40
Natural beach tumbled ivory chip about 2,000 years old. Flower is white bronze, cast just for this piece, with a zircon center. Chain bail is behind  the flower.
Right Pendant copper brass nickle flower   $40
Metals hand cut and soldered. So one of a kind not stamped. Flowers have inlays, top is walrus ivory bottom is abalone shell. Chain bail is a loop behind the flowers.
I can make rings as a special order so this shows something I can do flowers with opal centers. See my special orders page

Already sold items a note
Items that sold are a one of a kind, but show ways I can use the materials if it gives you an idea for a special order, or how to work with material you have, or if you want to inquire if I have anything else 'similar' Meaning the same cast wolf head, or a shell about that size and color-like that. You can then contact me. Cut and paste the picture if you can. But see my 'ordering' page. The link is at the top and bottom of all 36 of my web pages. Sometimes comments on sold items give me ideas, lets me know what's in style now, or a direction to move if I feel like it, if I know people like certain things.

This exact item 'proby sold' if  not I couldn't find it in a reasonable amount if time and will sell at a show someplace. 'But' is an example of something i can do in that I have many wax patterns to cast that can be combined in many ways. Birds animals flowers can be 'arranged' and then cast. I can do it as a special order if you see a bird flower or animal I cast  and want a combination! See my ordering page
